Full description
Immerse yourself in the heart of the Mijares River and discover water canyoning at its best, descending the famous Chillapájaros Straits in Montanejos.
You will cross streams, slide down natural slides and make optional jumps into crystal clear water pools, surrounded by imposing walls of more than 100 metres, all in a wild environment of great beauty!
Always accompanied by qualified guides, you will live a 4.5 hour adventure full of adrenaline and nature.
What we will do
We will meet at the indicated time in Montanejos, in the province of Castellón, where the guides will welcome us and give us the complete equipment.
We will have a first logistic briefing of about 5 minutes, where we will explain the details of the activity, the material and the safety rules. Afterwards, we will spend about 30 minutes preparing and setting up the equipment. Once ready, we will get into the organisation's vans for a short 7-minute drive to the start of the course.
Before entering the water, we will receive a 10 minute technical briefing on water canyoning progression techniques and how to tackle each obstacle safely.
We will start the descent under the impressive jet of the Arenoso spillway, sliding down a rapid-slide that will mark the beginning of our adventure. Along the way, we will swim along the currents of the Mijares river, slide down natural slides and do optional jumps into crystal clear pools. The more daring will be able to explore a cavity with a siphon (submerged passage is not compulsory).
The final part of the route will be done floating while crossing the strait, surrounded by spectacular walls of more than 100 metres high, where we will even be able to see climbers in action.
At the end, the organisation's vans will pick us up and take us back to the base to change and finish the experience. The activity will last a total of 4.5 hours, including briefing, preparation, travel and descent into the river. The maximum height difference is 60 metres.
